Tho Ticket.

Tho Ticket.
The republicans of Audubon coun.
ty accomplished good work tor the
party in making up the ticket last
Friday. The nominees are all men
Of prominence in their respective
localities, and men who realize and
will perform their duties as candi-
dates of the party. The work Of
the convention is especially COM
mendable in the matter of appor.
tionment, giving all localities, so far
as possible, representation on the
ticket, creating an interest and en-
thusiasm that will have most telling
effect at the polls. No locality has
a disaffection, but rather all are well
pleased that the apportionment is so
just. Especially is this noticeable in
Extra township, where the hard
working and faithful republicans
will do effective work for the party,
and place the democratic strong
hold in the county among the doubt
full precincts.
Mr.. VIM. Walker, ofExira town.
ship, the nominee for representative,
is one of the strong minds of the
county, and preeminently represent
alive of her citizenship. He is one
of the early settlers, and has been
active in the development of the
county. None know better the
needs Of the people, and especially
the agriculturists, than does VIM.
Walker, and none are better able to
recommend and frame remedial laws
for existing evils. In his occupation
as farmer, stock raiser and shipper
he has been eminently successful,
and is today one of the largest ship
pers in the county, so that he will
bring intelligence and good judg-
ment to the consideration Of the
vexatious transportation problem.
He is of exalted character, is actu-
ated by integrity and candor, and on
all questions will have the courage
to sustain his convictions. Person.

temperament, and by reason Of hav.
ing for many years made plans SC
that his affairs transpire much &C
cording to his liking has come &c
receive the dispcnsations of tim,
with equanimity approaching salts
faction. Physically he is of fin,
proportion (the mere sight Of which
at the state capital will encourage
emigration to our county,, and en-
joys good health to contribute to hi
strength and peace of mind. Alto
gether he will make Representative
OF whom Audubon county may wei
be proud, resting in the conidenc
that he will work increasingly 70

A better nomination than that {
w. II. Stowell, of Lincoln township
for auditor could not have bee
made. He is young man OF irr,

bic gentleman to meet at the con
house.
